Hi! I am Shruthi and I’m from India and moved to the US 30 years ago after getting married. I am a mother of 2 wonderful children, and I worked as a sales manager for almost 10 years while my husband Govardhan (Govi) was an engineer. We moved to India to be close to family and then moved back to the US a few years ago. Although I have kept myself busy with painting, baking and cake decorating, my husband and I have been wanting to travel again. We took an early retirement and now that the kids are on their own, we have decided to embark on our journey to travel the world.
How I Got Started
Who doesn’t love to travel? We all do, I’m sure. But life and responsibilities always come in the way. In my case, although we have done some traveling as a family, it always felt rushed and left us wanting more. At this point in our lives, we are both retired, so we decided to follow our dreams and travel. Our plan is to not only visit the sights but to immerse ourselves in a country’s culture and experience the lifestyles and food around the world.
So we rented out our house, packed away all our belongings, and began our journey. Along the way, I have penned down some of my experiences, good or bad, comments or advice, etc.
My desire is to inspire others to travel by showcasing a destination through my experience, photographs and social media accounts. Few people have done what we are doing, so wish us luck and if you are interested and have found my blog useful, spread the word and come along for the ride. Maybe my experience can give you some pointers and help you start your own journey.
